I have installed the Whidbey CTP Beta2 and now I have strange behaviour with
all .NET apps (also programs which were copiled with .NET 1.0 version):

If I close a .NET program regularly using the close os exit button my
computer does not respond/is frozen for say ten seconds. I cannot even open
the taskmanager to see which process delays the closing. But if I close the
app using the taskmanager or the stop button in visual studio while
debugging everything is fine, the application stops immediately and my pc is
responding. What can that be?
 
Are these programs running under the debugger or in Debug mode? Try with
the Release mode or without the debugger.

The problem occures even if the programs are run without IDE/debugger.
I cannot imagine a reason of such a behaviour. What actions are running on
shutdown of an application that require so much ressources? Maybe the
shutdown of the CLR? But when I force the apps in taskmanager to exit there
is no problem what makes the difference?
 
I have no idea.

The only think that comes to my mind when I read your message is to
remembering me of not installing VS2005 Beta2 on anything else than a test
machine.

As far as I can tell there are some applications not affected.
For example all managed DirextX sdk samples are affected as well as GUI
applications using the new WinForms classes like MenuStrip and so on (not
using Avalon!)
Programs compiled with the old VS2003 work without any problems.
Iam using WinXP SP 2.
